Obligation to wear a mask even outdoors, a buffer for those arriving from eight European countries with high contagion, strengthening and extension of the Immuni app.
These are some of the
news that the government is preparing to approve with a Covid decree
, which
outlines
the regulatory framework for anti-contagion measures, and a new one-month dpcm that will specifically define the interventions.
The draft of the law decree, in extending the time horizon of the rules to 31 January 2021 in light of the extension of the state of emergency, already outlines some of the innovations: the main one is the obligation to wear masks outdoors.
For those who violate the provisions there are high fines.
OUTDOOR MASKS
- It is the tightening decided by the government to counter the second wave of infections.
The masks also become mandatory "outdoors when you are close to other people not living together".
Without prejudice to "the anti-contagion protocols envisaged for specific economic and productive activities, as well as the guidelines for the consumption of food and drinks".
The ban does not apply to children under the age of six, those who play sports and people with pathologies and disabilities not compatible with the use of the mask.
ANTI CONTAGION RULES
- The anti-contagion rules in force since the beginning of the pandemic remain: physical spacing of at least one meter, ban on gathering, compliance with hygiene measures starting from hand washing, obligation to stay at home with more than 37, 5 of fever.
IMMUNI
APP
- The single national Immune platform for the alert of subjects who have come into contact with positive people at Covid can remain operational until 31 December 2021 (no longer 31 December 2020).
After that term, all personal data must be "deleted or made permanently anonymous".
Immuni will also be able to communicate with other European platforms, so tracking will continue abroad for those traveling to Europe.
WORK AND CINEMA
- With the extension of the state of emergency, the incentive to smart working also remains for all jobs that can apply it.
The obligation remains to comply with the safety protocols defined for the reopening of workplaces, restaurants and clubs.
For cinemas, theaters and concerts, the limit remains of 200 people for indoor shows and 1000 people for outdoor ones.
FINES
- To date, the fines for those who do not respect the limitations imposed by the anti-contagion rules range from 400 euros to 1000 euros.
In the first phase of the lockdown, the maximum ceiling was 3,000 euros but then in May the Parliament reduced the maximum penalties.
Those who have contracted Covid but do not respect the quarantine can incur a criminal sanction with arrest from 3 to 18 months, as well as a fine from 500 to 5,000 euros.
POLES TO THE REGIONS
- According to the new Covid decree law, the regions can only adopt anti-contagion measures that are more restrictive than those established by the government's dpcm.
They can adopt "expansive" ones, therefore more permissive, only in cases where the dpcm expressly foresee it and after obtaining the assent of the technical-scientific committee.
In any case, the Regions must "simultaneously inform the Ministry of Health".
COMPULSORY PADS
- Those arriving in Italy from Great Britain, Holland and Belgium will have to undergo the compulsory tampon.
Today, the obligation of the molecular or antigen test with the swab is foreseen for those arriving from Croatia, Greece, Malta, Spain, as well as from Paris and other seven regions of France.
